Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 1317 - 1324 I Don’t Want a Divorce (4)

An Qilu said, "Glass is in great demand in the Capital, and many wealthy people from other places eagerly bring their silver to the Capital to buy it. We in the North are too far from the Capital, and many rich people often complain that we have none for sale here. Now, thanks to the Empress Dowager, we also have glass for sale in the North. Everyone will definitely be happy, and when the time comes, we should be able to sell it well!"

Cai Wei said, "I hope your auspicious words come true. I should be able to bring the glass over in about two or three days. Let’s meet here again in this place at the same time two days from now to finalize the delivery of the glass."

An Qilu said, "Yes, I will definitely be on time for the appointment the day after tomorrow!"

Having agreed on their plans, they called for more food and drink and began to eat and drink.

During the meal, Cai Wei took advantage of An Qilu’s lack of attention and repeatedly sneaked some food into Space for Brother Ying and Old Turtle. An Qilu noticed the food disappearing quickly and couldn’t help but be astonished. No matter how he looked at it, the petite Empress Dowager in front of him didn’t seem like someone with a huge appetite. But where did all the vanishing food go?

After dinner, An Qilu sent Cai Wei back in his carriage. When she got home, she saw that the people who had gone next door to the Zhou Family to offer congratulations had mostly dispersed. She then fished out a pair of finely carved jade bracelets, a jade hairpin, and a jade pendant from the Spiritual Stream in Space, planning to give them to An Ziyi as a congratulatory gift.

Aunt Zhou came out of the house and just happened to see Cai Wei. She hurriedly called out, "Girl, where did you disappear to so early in the morning? Your aunt had kept your meal for you!"

Cai Wei laughed and said, "This morning, I saw there were too many people, and it was too noisy, so I sneaked off to check on the Nursing Homes. The Nursing Homes are so well managed, I really must thank you, Aunt. I have already eaten dinner outside, so you don’t need to worry about me!"

Saying this, she handed the prepared items over the courtyard wall and said, "These are for my sister-in-law, please give them to her on my behalf, Aunt. I wish them a long life together and hope they soon have children!"

Aunt Zhou was startled when she opened to check the items and quickly pushed them back, saying, "Girl Wei, these are far too valuable. I can’t accept such expensive gifts from you. You should keep them for yourself."

Cai Wei stuffed the items back into Aunt Zhou’s bosom and said, "Aunt, you have helped our family so much over the years; even these few pieces of jade are not enough to express my gratitude. Please accept them without further ado!"

Left with no choice, Aunt Zhou finally accepted the hair ornaments and said, "Tomorrow morning I’ll be making dumplings; remember to come over and eat."

At that time tomorrow morning, she would already be in the Capital of Northern Ridge. How could she possibly come? Cai Wei said, "I have something to do tomorrow, so I won’t come over. Maybe the day after tomorrow!"

Separated by the wall, they chatted for a while longer before each heading back into their own house.

At nightfall, Cai Wei mounted the white-furred Tiger and rode toward Northern Ridge...

In the Capital City

Mo Zili was forcibly taken back home from the Palace by Duke Li Guo. As soon as he arrived, he ignored others’ attempts to stop him, snatched a horse, and headed straight for the manor where Xiang Yun was.

All the way there, he endured the severe pain from his bone injury, gritting his teeth and spurring the horse on, wishing he could reach the manor in a single bound. He had to see her, to apologize himself, to express his regret and seek her forgiveness. Even if it meant kneeling before her, he would not hesitate, as long as she would give him one more chance. He swore he would never cause her the slightest bit of harm again.

However, by the time he arrived at the manor, she was already gone, not just her but also her maid, chests, basket of needle and thread, all her belongings had disappeared. If not for the traces of their existence in the courtyard, he would have almost believed that she had never been there at all.
